Depreciation
- See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MACRS and [IRS-946] for more info.
- All relevant accounts are tagged with MACRS, and matching asset codes.
- Capital value:
Assets:Capital:{asset-code}
- Depreciation Contra-asset:
Assets:Accumulated-Depreciation:{asset-code}
. - Inventory tracking:
Virtual:Assets:Capital:{asset-code}
- Capital value:
- All assets use the mid-quarter convention to avoid splitting the calculation between property that may use half-year convention vs property that must use the mid-quarter convention.
- The purchasing year & quarter is derived from the purchase date in the account name.
- Some assets are retained long past their depreciation period, as they are still functioning fine.
- Risks & Outstanding Issues:
- There are no Section 179 elections in place for additional depreciation. This differs from the formal IRS filing, where the depreciation is chosen by the accountant for optimal tax handlng.
- It is possible that some assets are in the wrong IRS asset class, per [IRS-946] Appendix B where the manner in which property is used can change it's lifecycle.
- The exact location of non-US assets may impact the depreciation system. This is NOT considered at this time, as minimal assets are outside of the US.
- Example:
Assets:Capital:Computers:Infra:Purchased_GDS5_201411
:- What is it?
Computers:Infra
tells us it is a computer or parts thereof used by Infra. (Computers:Dev
would be used by a Developer) - What is the MACRS system & property class life:
GDS5
GDS, with a 5-year class life. - When was it purchased?

FASB 2016-14
- FASB 2016-14 MUST be applied for all fiscal years starting after 2017/12/15, but the standard permits earlier application.
- The treasurer has elected to apply the changes to ALL financial statements, as none of them have been formally audited at this time.
- Donor Restrictions
- The earlier boards did NOT include any formal means for donors to restrict cash donations.
- Some in-kind donations MAY have usage restrictions (e.g. bandwidth limitations, disclosure limitations), but are not expected to impact the financial statements at this time. This has not yet been confirmed with a CPA that specializes in NPO accounting.
